Psychologists who offer interpersonal therapy
What is Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)?
Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) is an evidence-based short-term therapy that focuses on the connection between psychological symptoms and your interpersonal relationships. The method works with four main areas: grief, role conflicts, role transitions, and interpersonal deficits. IPT has strong evidence for treating depression and is also used for eating disorders, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does IPT differ from other therapies?
IPT specifically focuses on the connection between your relationships and your psychological wellbeing. Instead of exploring childhood or thought patterns, the work centres on current relationships and social roles as the key to recovery.
How long does an IPT course last?
IPT is designed as short-term therapy and typically lasts 12-16 sessions. The course is structured with a clarification phase, a working phase, and a termination phase that prepares you to maintain improvements.
When is IPT particularly effective?
IPT is particularly effective for depression triggered by relational problems — such as loss, partner conflicts, life transitions like divorce or retirement, or loneliness and social difficulties.
